Canal Rocks

Canal Rocks is a coastal granite rock formation on the Indian Ocean near Yallingup in the City of Busselton, Western Australia, within Leeuwin-Naturaliste National Park. A narrow channel cut through the layered gneissic rocks by the ocean creates a natural canal bridged by a timber footbridge. Notable for dramatic wave action, clear turquoise water and rugged coastline, it is a popular sightseeing and photography stop on the Margaret River region's Caves Road tourist route.

Visitors can expect a rugged granite coastline with a narrow sea canal, turquoise pools and channels carved through gneissic rock. A timber footbridge and viewing platforms cross the canal and provide close views of waves surging through the rocks. The site is open and exposed to the Indian Ocean with rocky platforms, small sheltered pools, and coastal heath surrounds. There is a sealed car park, toilets and interpretive signage a short walk from the rocks.
